name: status
description: "Check Nowledge Mem server connectivity and configuration. Use when memory commands fail or the user asks about setup."
---
# Status
## When to Use
- Memory commands return errors or unexpected results
- User asks "is Mem connected?" or "check my setup"
- First time using the plugin in a new environment
## Usage
```bash
nmem --json status
```
## Interpreting Results
**Healthy response includes:**
- Server status: running
- Version: server version number
- API URL: where the server is listening
- Capabilities: available features (search, threads, working memory)
**If it fails:**
1. Check that the Nowledge Mem desktop app is running, or that `nmem serve` is active on your server.
2. Verify `nmem` is installed: `pip install nmem-cli`, `pipx install nmem-cli`, or on Arch Linux `yay -S nmem-cli` / `paru -S nmem-cli`.
3. For remote servers, ensure `~/.nowledge-mem/config.json` contains valid `apiUrl` and `apiKey` fields, or set `NMEM_API_URL` and `NMEM_API_KEY` environment variables.
